Question

Han Products manufactures 22,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line. At this level of activity, the cost per unit for part S-6 is:

Direct materials $ 4.30 Direct labor 6.00 Variable manufacturing overhead 2.40 Fixed manufacturing overhead 15.00 Total cost per part $ 27.70

An outside supplier has offered to sell 22,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $40.00 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $477,600. However, Han Products has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier. Required:

a. Calculate the per unit and total relevant cost for buying and making the product? (Round your Per Unit answers to 2 decimal places.)

How much will profits increase or decrease if the outside supplier’s offer is accepted?

Explanation / Answer

TOTAL RELEVENT COST FOR MAKING THE PRODUCT.

TOTAL RELEVENT COST OF BUYING

= 22000 * $40

= $880000

INCEREASE/DECEREASE IN PROFIT

= $880000 - $867000

= $13000 DECEREASE IN PROFIT

DESCRIPTION AMOUNT $ DIRECT MATERIAL 4.30 DIRECT LABOUR 6.00 VARIABLE MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD 2.40 FIXED MANUFACTURING OVERHEAD ($15 - $10) 5 COST PER UNIT $17.7 OPPERTUNITY COST $477600 TOTAL RELEVENT COST (22000 * $17.7) + $477600 $867000
